Tires
Snow Tires
If you mount snow tires on your
Honda, make sure they are radial
tires of the same size and load
range as the original tires. Mount
snow tires on all four wheels to
balance your car's handling in
all weather conditions. Keep in
mind the traction provided by
snow tires on dry roads may not
be as high as your car's original
equipment tires. You should drive
cautiously even when the roads
are clear. Check with the tire
dealer for maximum speed
recommendations.
Tire Chains
Mount snow chains on your car
when warranted by driving
conditions or required by local
laws. Make sure the chains are
the correct size for your tires.
Install them only on the front
tires. If metal chains are used,
they must be SAE class "S." Cable
type traction devices can also be
used.
When installing chains, follow the
manufacturer's instructions and
mount them as tightly as you can.
Drive slowly with chains installed.
If you hear the chains contacting
the body or chassis, stop and
tighten them. If they still make
contact, slow down until it stops.
Remove the chains as soon as you
begin driving on cleared roads.
Chains of the wrong size or that
are improperly installed can
damage your car's brake lines,
suspension, body, and wheels.
Stop driving if you hear the
chains hitting any part of the car.
